I am an Advanced Certified Paralegal (ACP) for attorney Rick Koehmstedt at Schwartz, Bon, Walker & Studer. I graduated from Baker College in Muskegon, Michigan with an Associate Degree in Paralegal Studies and a Bachelors in Business Administration/Leadership. When I moved from Michigan to Wyoming in 2007, I continued with my paralegal career and have had the opportunity to work for some awesome attorneys.

I earned my Certified Paralegal (CP) designation from NALA in 2011, as well as my ACP in personal injury the following year. I joined the Legal Assistants of Wyoming in 2009, and have been a member since, holding various law board positions in the past (former President, 1st Vice President, 2nd Vice President, NALA Liaison and Region 3 Director).

I am married to my native Wyomingite husband Adam and we live on our little ranch just outside of Casper, along with our numerous fur babies -- chickens, goats, dogs and cat.

I am excited to be the NALA Liaison representing LAW this year!
